Figure 2From: Aged B lymphocytes retain their ability to express surface markers but are dysfunctional in their proliferative capability during early activation eventsSplenocytes from aged mice are able to upregulate CD86 effectively upon stimulation. SPC from young, middle-aged, and aged QM mice were harvested and cultured for 24 and 48 hours. Splenocytes were stained for expression of cell surface markers. Lymphocytes were gated on FSC/SSC and B cells on B220+. Representative of 4 separate experiments.Back to article page
